Hi James.
Thanks!
Actually, the plants are nothing fancy.
Spider plant is what you are seeing with some Broms mixed in.
The larger leaf plant in the lower part of the pic is Anthurium (sp?).

The spider plants grow tall and "reedy" in a viv. That makes them look different than what we are used to seeing in a hanging pot.
The spider plant needs to be thinned out every now and then, but its no big deal. I just hack away with the scissors.
I know spider plants aren't considered a very "chic" plant... but the thumbs love climbing on the long leaves.
And when they jump from leaf to leaf, the leaves spring and sway and they seem to like that.

btw. I have about 6 or 7 Northern/Highland eggs hatching as we speak. hint hint
